there are actual ritaarded lunatic commies out there who will defend booing the kid with cancer as some sort of righteous stand to promote big socialist government spending and wasting of your money.

A growing number of Democrats are trying to divert attention away from President Donald Trump's State of the Union address on Tuesday through their absences amid a limited set of options for peaceably voicing their displeasure with the administration.

A number of Democrats will instead attend the "People's State of the Union" event held near the Lincoln Memorial.

The event, described as a rally, is organized by MeidasTouch and MoveOn Civic Action, a pair of left-leaning media and activist groups, and will focus on criticisms of Trump's first year back in office.

The event will draw senators like Ed Markey, D-Mass., Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., Chris Murphy, D-Conn., Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., and Tina Smith, D-Minn.,

On the House side, Democrats attending will include Reps. Yassamin Ansari, D-Ariz., Becca Balint, D-Vt., Greg Casar, D-Texas, Veronica Escobar, D-Texas, Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., John Larson, D-Conn., Sydney Kamlager-Dove, D-Calif., Delia Ramirez, D-Ill., Sara Jacobs, D-Calif., Emily Randall, D-Wash., and Bonnie Watson Coleman, D-N.J.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Trump is apparently going to double down on tariffs tonight. Regardless of whether you think his broad-based tariff strategy is good for the country, I don't think it's a winner politically and will undermine his desire to retain Congress in the upcoming midterms. Most folks don't think the eventual gain from tariffs -- if it ever materializes -- is worth the pain here and now.

Inflation is down
Wages are up
GDP is growing
Trade deficit is declining

What pain is being caused now by tariffs?

The disconnect is he is loudly proclaiming tariffs as good for America, but people aren't feeling it. Inflation is down from the Biden years, but it's also stubbornly hanging around 3%. PCE inflation for December just printed at 3% and economists expect it to potentially move up a bit in January due to tariffs. Their words, not mine.

The "trade deficit" doesn't mean anything to everyday Americans. And as a practical matter, we continue running annual deficits of 6% to 7%, adding to the outrageous national debt. We kept taxes low but did nothing to reduce spending that moves the needle.

The key concern today is "affordability." He would do much better to focus on that topic and what he is doing to improve things for Americans than his obsession with tariffs. He comes across like he's a wearing tin foil hat, ignoring what people really care about. And that will absolutely nail you in the voting booth.

He's done a lot of good work to eliminate excessive regulations, promote the availability of low cost energy (gas prices!), and many other things. The body of work is there, but his public messaging is not.

None of that has anything to do with tariffs.

It has everything to do with his public messaging and what voters believe is important to him. Do we hear him talking about affordability and all the things he's doing to try and make it better?

Crickets. Instead all we get is the non-stop drone about tariffs, and how the Supreme Court is unfair, and how tariffs are going to make us great again!

Increasingly, nobody cares about his damn tariffs. They care about paying the bills, and they think he's preoccupied with fighting other countries instead of prioritizing the little man and woman.

He can continue on that path if he wants, but it will lead to a shellacking in the midterms.

The left will think the speech is reminiscent of Hitler, MAGA will think it's the greatest speech of all time, and those who can think for themselves will rightly view it was a complete waste of time, just like every other SOTU ever given.

SotU are dumb, as-is.

When President Trump heads to Capitol Hill tonight to make the case for his new approach to tariffs, he will face an audience growing skeptical of his trade policy.

Among voters, some polls show Americans opposed to Trump's tariffs by a nearly 2-to-1 margin. Just this week, a new ABC News/Washington Post/Ipsos poll found that 64% of Americans disapprove of Trump's handling of tariffs, while only 34% approve.

MAGA generally does a good job delivering these types of speeches. In fact, really good considering he was never a professional politician until 2015. He typically does a good job with weaving his guests into the speech. Will be interesting to see how he does with the hockey team.

Some of the men's team will be there, but the women will not. They declined citing academic and professional reasons. NHL starts back up tomorrow, so I'm guessing some of those teams want their players back today for some practice.

This is the perfect example of something that is sooo outlandish and jackass-ish, that one would think no freakin' WAY would do something like that, but TDS is incredibly mind altering, and the DemocRATs have completely succumbed to it so…..

I'm almost expecting it now, and will be disappointed if it does not happen.

You mean Biden didn't cure it?



Its actually quite sad... look at Joe in that picture when he was running for president and look at him on his last day in office. All politics aside, the dude was a shell of a man.

That's why the marxist regime screwed over bernie to select and install him. they didn't want a man. they wanted an empty suit "shell of a man" figurehead. They could give him cards, tell him the questions and the answers beforehand. Put tape and stickers on the ground to guide him where he was to walk and stand. build a fake oval office tv set for him to read a few words. Most of what "he" did, from the intentional hatred and divisive speeches to the wide open borders with unfettered mass migration go against everything the old man ever said during his previous half century in DC, when he was still dumb and corrupt, but at least sane.

I expect lots of booing and Democrats packing the balcony with invited guests from south of the border here illegally.


The little brother marrying terrorist is bringing some woman that was arrested by ICE. Of course they'll be portraying her as a victim.

I hope they let the dog come in with the other guy.

Congratulations on the dumbest post today. We've seen all these so-called victims the Democrats parade in there who aren't victims. You gotta be a pretty cold piece of **** to boo a kid with cancer.

Hmmm, maybe put some ICE in the chamber so that can arrest that woman again?

All the media there today is hating on the men's team saying up while they were to talk to the President of the United States and all of them are calling them piece of **** traitors. Oh, they're really pissed about Kash too. But apparently not Whitmire.

So it's pissing off the right people!

I find liberals and Democrats to be the most vile people on the face of the Earth.
